In CS Internship we mostly focus to "Soft Skills". In fact the whole process of learning a new technology is just a tool to train these soft skills within the procedss. The list of soft skills we are working on is:
- Integrity
- Integrity!
- Integrity!!
- Dare to estimate, reasonable estimations
- Dare to ask questions, Dare to answer
- The ability to share themselves on social networks
- The ability to present themselves to the audience

We practice integrity by being strict on these situations:
- Skype meeting times
- Step promises
We practice estimation skills by creating on these situations:
- Intern should estimate (and a promise on it) for each step.
We practice asking skills by creating on these situations:
- Running Step 0. In this step intern should contact everyone in the club to get familiar with them and make it easy to ask questions.
- Some tasks within steps so intern should ask something in StackOverflow
